Written Answers
Smoking
Asked by: Lord Young of Cookham (Conservative - Life peer)
Monday 10th November 2025

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government when they will publish a roadmap to a smoke-free Britain, as set out in the 10 Year Health Plan for England.

Answered by Baroness Merron - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care)

The 10-Year Health Plan for England sets out our ambition for a smoke-free United Kingdom and to protect future generations from the harms of tobacco and nicotine addiction. The Tobacco and Vapes Bill is currently in committee stage in the House of Lords.

There are no plans to develop a roadmap at this time, but we will keep this under review. Our attention and focus must be on delivering this legislation and on designing the regulations that follow.

Child Trust Fund
Asked by: Lord Young of Cookham (Conservative - Life peer)
Monday 24th November 2025

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the proposal from The Share Foundation for automatic release of Child Trust Funds at 21 years old.

Answered by Lord Livermore - Financial Secretary (HM Treasury)

The government is aware of suggestions that a system could be developed for paying out the savings held in matured Child Trust Fund (CTF) accounts that have not been accessed by the account owners by the age of 21.

The savings in these accounts belong to the account owners and are held by private sector CTF providers. The government does not have authority to close the accounts or to access and transfer the savings in them. The infrastructure required to implement the proposal does not currently exist within government departments or CTF providers.

The Government is committed to reuniting all young adults with their CTFs. HMRC works with CTF providers, industry representatives and others such as the University and Colleges Admissions service, to explore ways of enabling account owners to be aware of and trace their accounts.
